‘This game typified Chelsea’s season’

“The changes Conte has made to change their season around can’t be underestimated.

“When their backs have been against the wall tonight, they defended well. This game typified Chelsea’s season. How many winners they have in their team makes them special.

“But tactically, individually, what Conte has done with these players and to bring them together is sensational.”

The stats behind Chelsea’s title win

Chelsea won their sixth top-flight title and fifth in the Premier League era. Only Manchester United (13) have won more Premier League titles.

Chelsea are the first club to win the English top-flight title on a Friday since Arsenal at Anfield in 1989.

Conte is the fourth Italian manager to win the English top-flight title after Ancelotti, Roberto Mancini and Claudio Ranieri.

Chelsea scored with their 23rd shot of the match at West Brom

A Belgian player has scored the title-deciding goal in each of the past three Premier League seasons (Batshuayi v West Brom in 2016-17, Eden Hazard v Tottenham in 2015-16 and v Crystal Palace in 2014-15).
